D-Day 65 Year Anniversary

Please take a moment to remember the sacrifice that thousands of American, Canadian, and British forces made 65 years ago.

The number that died on D-Day is still not certain. The total figure is estimated to be between 4000-9000 people dead. These soldiers faced certain death. They still gathered the strength and courage to do the impossible. They stormed the beach. If not for their sacrifice Hitler's control of Europe could have lasted indefinitely.

The bravery, the strength, and the sheer love for our country guided these soldiers. Honor them in your prayers. Honor them in your thoughts. But most of all, honor them in your hearts.

God Bless the men and women in our Armed Forces.
